I have a puzzle to solve with a list of phrases with all consonants missing (only vowels remain).

The phrases all contain the word 'yellow'. They can be anything from slogans, saying, song titles, sports teams, famous quotes, lyrics, film titles etc. I have one left that I just can't get. It is 4 words long:

-e--o- -i-e- -u--i-- --ea-

The first word must be 'yellow'. All the missing letters are consonants only.

Please help!

P.S. Sorry it's not a crossword, but I thought some of you might be able to help!

Thank you! That was the only thing we could think of too, but it's not a phrase me or any of my family had heard of and nothing appeared in Google so we were completely lost - but as you know where it's from, I'm willing to take it!
